Ever since early-UFC, when people got wise to be-gay-gay's fruity li'l bag o' tricks, the leg-spreaders have looked everywhere for enough of an edge to catch their former glory and enable them to prevail against those who are stronger than they (AKA the majority of humankind).

So the use of hoids to help poor li'l ol' be-gay-gay was inevitable. As will be its ultimate futility: hoids can only compensate for so much effeminacy...

Gotta love Brazil, though: where else do 'men' pay more for cosmetic surgery than women? (how many carnival-girls in Rio are actually XX?) Even early-NHB fighter Marco Ruas--far more of a hombre than just about any present-day brajitz 'fighter'--didn't want to let on his age because "it's a sensitive issue for Brazilian men".

So Barnett is the living embodyment of all things catch and Monson for BJJ? Because all I saw is a fighter that claims catch win a decision over a BJJ champion. Speaking of which, why isn't Barnett the ADCC heavyweight campion?
